When they do, will that mean that discrimination against Asians has stopped?[/quote]
Success of a race on average and discrimination against a race are two separate thing. Just because Asian found ways to work around the discrimination, persevere through the discrimination, and achieve financial success does not mean they’re not being discriminated against. It just mean as a group, Asian don’t spend as much energy bitching about it as working with the landscape that’s in front of them, even when there’s discrimination.[/quote]
Flu contended that white men weren’t being discriminated against because they are doing so well in corporate America. I think groups can be both discriminated against and successful – which was the point I was making.[/quote]
I didn’t say that it doesn’t happen. It doesn’t happen to the scale that people bitch about. Take Paramount for example. He (use to?) works for an aerospace company in RB, same one that some of my colleagues use to work there too.
Why on earth would he feel like he’s discriminated against when
1) There’s no H1-B in his company, since most of the work requires a security clearance
2) There’s barely any asians at his company too, and virtually none in management (I’ve checked)
3) Barely any other minorities over there (I’ve checked in the past)
Granted it went through tough times because of other reasons (consolidation of operations that led to a few folks I know moving to Maryland and Virginia) and it’s dysfunctional in the past for many reasons, but specifically what is this sort of “discrimination” he personally experience?
He’s working in the industry that has the greatest barrier to entry because due to the need for a security clearance, so that eliminates all “illegals” and all “immigrants” from a direct threat to so called job security, and since getting a security clearances takes a long time these days, it’s even a pretty big “wall” for people with U.S. citizenship. So what job threat from illegals/H1-B’s/immigrants has he or is he specifically experiencing, which is the #1 complaint among Trump worshippers. And yet, I still hear him claim he was discriminated against? So I’m curious, what specific incidence(s) of discrimination?
I suspect none specifically, it’s just he’s been listening too much to what others spew, what Trump spews, and adopted the same rhetoric as if he personally has experienced it himself.
